Description
Valve Hook Retractors
Size: 240 mm
The Valve Hook is a specialized surgical instrument designed for the precise handling, elevation, and retraction of cardiac valves during open-heart surgeries and valve repair or replacement procedures. Its delicately curved hook tip allows the surgeon to securely engage valve leaflets or annular structures without causing trauma to the delicate cardiac tissues.
Crafted with precision by NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, and distributed under the high-quality SMS surgical medical supplies brand, the Valve Hook is constructed from German stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance, autoclavability, and long-term surgical reliability. It is CE-certified, making it safe for repeated use in sterile cardiovascular operating environments.
This instrument is most commonly used in cardiothoracic procedures, particularly in mitral valve surgery, aortic valve exposure, and valve tissue inspection. The slim profile and fine control allow for gentle maneuvering inside the confined spaces of the chest cavity. The hooked tip, sometimes rounded or slightly blunted, ensures secure and atraumatic contact with delicate valve components.
Designed with a lightweight and ergonomic handle, the Valve Hook minimizes hand fatigue and enhances surgical control during high-precision cardiac interventions. It is often used in combination with other cardiovascular retractors, ensuring excellent visibility and access in even the most complex surgeries.
